Alright so I want to backtrack a bit and write up my cupboards contents / grocery list to help people realize that there are LOTS of food choices. Your diet is suppose to be 20% protien foods-acid forming foods (restricted to what's on the list) and 80% starch foods-alkaline foods and bulk forming foods-neutral foods.
Protien list currently in my home : beans, beef, eggs, oats, nuts (cashews, pecans etc) oatmeal, peas, poultry, pork, prunes, white rice, seeds ( hemp hearts, flax, sunflower etc), tofu, and importantly salmon, (super food which can go over and above the 20%) there is also coffee, lamb, lentils, liver, rhubarb, soy beans, veal and wheat germ that are acceptable however I do not own them.
Starch foods and bulk forming foods in my home : apples, almond milk, berries (strawberries, blueberries) lemons, peaches, popcorn, potatoes, squash, totatoes, beets, butter, carrots, corn, cucumbers, herbs, kale, lettuce, oils, peas, peppers, and again chives, garlic, ginger, onions, herbal tea, millet, almonds and brown rice that are most recommended. There is also buckwheat, quinoa, apricots, cherries, pears, plums, nectarines, yams, pumpkin, sesame seeds, tahini, arugula, artichokes, asparagus, avocado, bok choy, broccoli, brussel sproats, cabbage, cauliflower, collards, chards, dandelion, eggplant, endive, escarole, kohlrabi, mustard seeds, okra, parsley, parsnips, peppermint, radiccio, radishes, rutabagas, seaweeds, sorrel, spinach, sproats, turnips, and water crest that are currently not in my kitchen.
Basically I wanted to type up these lists for myself and anyone else who worries about what they are going to eat for the 12 days they are detoxing. And give tips on what's working for me!
Day one meal plan
Breakfast : 1 cup of oatmeal with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and an apple sliced on top
Lunch : 1 cup of nuts with at least half almonds ( I was driving so not a huge lunch)
Snack : 1 1/2 cups of puffed millet, 1 cup of almond milk and 1/2 cup of blueberries ( totally going to be breakfast in the near future)
Supper : 1 fillet of salmon and 1 cup of raw carrots.
Day two meal plan
Breakfast : shake with 1/2 cup each of tofu, almond milk, blueberries and mango juice and 2 T of hemp hearts blended
Lunch : Mexican rice dish from the recipe book I am using ( left overs for the coming days)
Snack : hummus and 1 cup of cucumber
Dinner : moose stew with 2 cups of potatoes, 1 cup of onion, 3 cloves of garlic, 3 diced tomatoes with some spices ( leftovers for freezing)
Day three meal plan
Breakfast : 1 cup of oatmeal with 1 cup of strawberries
Lunch : leftover Mexican rice or stew
Dinner : Veggie spagetti from the recipe book ( honestly it's cooked spagetti squash with butter, garli, salt and pepper )
I have only planned ahead as far as tomorrow, but I have a lot of detox friendly food around the house. I am excited for this journey and hope you keep with me on my experience.
